I am 30 years old and several years back I
started to grow hair on my breast. Is this
normal? And, if not what can I do to get
rid of it?

Most women have hair on their breasts.
How thick is the hair? If it is extremely
thick, it may be a hormonal deficiency
that has developed. If you are worried
about this you can see your doctor. If
you find the hair unattractive, you can
always shave it.

I wouldn't suggest shaving hair on your
chest. I have this problem and I wax it.
It'll grow back fine and soft, not prickly
like if you shave. And it'll take longer
to grow back also.
You might want to see an endocrinologist
to see if you might have PCOS. Which I
have the good fortune to have. I can't remember
how to spell what it's abbreviated for but
a simple google search will tell you.
